A Short Film About John Bolton

New Video just sent me the cover of "A Short Film About John Bolton", which they'll be releasing later this year, and which you can pre-order with any of the usual suspects. I suspect that, like their release of the BBC Neverwhere on DVD, it will be Region Free, but won't know it for sure until it comes out.

It has on it:

"A Short Film About John Bolton", the short film I wrote and directed (it's half an hour long) in late 2002, starring John O' Mahoney, Marcus Brigstocke, Carolyn Backhouse, Jonathan Ross, and of course, artist John Bolton.

(It's an investigation into where artists get their ideas from.)

"Live at the Aladdin", the hour-long film of the "Last Angel Tour" reading/event at the Aladdin Theatre in Portland in October 2000, only previously available on video through the CBLDF.

"Drawn in Darkness", an audio track, of me reading the story that inspired the film.

Many lovely John Bolton paintings.
